I think I read somewhere they were for Aerodynamics. They allow you to pull down the visor faster in such a situation where the sun pops out from around a building. They are only available with the Luxury Package with ML.

Spoken like someone who has a lot of experience getting pulled over... Anyway, I use mine to store the parking tickets I get when I go into parking towers.
